The day after her brother is picked up staggering down Main Street, dishabille and disheveled and beating himself repeatedly about the face and genitals with a slatted serving spoon, Evelyn is paid a visit by the Secure Medical Facility’s chief psychiatrist. Urged to think better of his request, when “Dr. Ike” refuses to take no for an answer, Evelyn is forced to give him exactly what he’s asked for: her family history.

Manufactured Blurbs from Dead Writers I Admire:

A jolly inflammatory satire on the managerial class…
- Samuel Butler

Evelyn, a cheeky embattled force of nature, brings all her wit and fury and sexuality
to bear in her campaign to rise above her hated upperish-middle-class
origins and achieve owner-class status.
- Mary McCarthy

Unapologetically invidious…
- Gore Vidal

A bit ribald for my taste, but not a bad first novel.
- Maya Angelou

A terrible beauty is born.
- William Butler Yeats
